Alleged Philly Mobster Will Plead Guilty

Uncle Sam indicted him, and now Gaeton Lucibello is crying uncle.

Lucibello was among the thirteen defendants charged last year for his alleged role in a gambling racket run by reputed Philly mob boss Joe Ligambi, and apparently now he's folding as reported by George Anastasia for The Inquirer: "notice of Lucibello's intention to plead guilty was filed Thursday with Judge Eduardo C. Robreno, who is presiding over the Ligambi case." At the time of Lucibello's arrest federal prosecutors characterized him as a "long-standing soldier" in the Philly mob.
